Training Wed 30May

Got there around 10.15 and wondered and wondered if one of the horsemen had arrived in the form of bird flu. There were very few 'firsts' on the track with the exception of Jones, Jamar, Magner, Hodge and may be a couple of others I've missed. Anyway, it turns out that they hadn't been struck down, simply a matter of a shorter session due to the 6 day break. Makes sense given how tired they must be.

Stefan M wasn't participating with the rest of the remaining main group - being the Casey players who have probably had a bit of a rest. He was getting some one on one. Dunn, Green, Magner (training machine!), Hodge were practicing their kicking for goal with Leigh Brown and getting one on one guidance. Also being practiced in pushing off players and going multiple times. Also saw Dave Misson training Couch & Cook (I think) in sprint starts so there's obviously a feeling that this is an area for improvement. Honorable mention to Sellars, he certainly puts in at training.

Gysberts & Strauss were training with this group as well.

Finally, an A-Grade midfielder!

jimcor... I hadn't realised Hodge had jumped ship to be with us... can I assume you meant Howe? ;-)

 

please mean Hodge!

You're right of course. I just slipped this in to see if you re concentrating. It might have been Brad Hodge trying his luck at a new sport having finally realized he was not going to be picked for the Ashes tour! I knew it didn't look right but went ahead anyway. Serves me right.

Ps he missed the set shot I watched him take. Glad he's got that out of his system as we don't want him doing that in a real game.

Just thought of another excuse, prescriptive text?????

Pre empting and predicating a mid season draft prescriptive text ???????

Pity we don't see it on the weekends

Now that would be a Smart Phone worth the investment!

Indeed, but I'm not sure that he's across his role (to say the least) and everyone says that big blokes take a while longer to develop. He's still only young and he's obviously seen as delivering something by the coaches. He's been pretty lucky (or should that be unlucky??) to get a good run in the firsts while Martin is on the sidelines. He might actually enjoy a some R & R in the twos for a couple of weeks to practice his skills.

It might have been Brad Hodge

He does a have a fair few runs on the board to demand a spot!

Hopefully Stef will be returning this week (seniors or VFL, I don't care) would surely push Sellar out on current form.

I think prescriptive text is predictive text but the rest of this thread I have to send to the de-coders.

Could it be that my 'predictive' text is being converted to 'prescriptive' text by my predictive text?

I went to the doctor for my speech impediment and he gave me a predictive script to get filled at the chemist

maybe prescriptive text is predictive text with fuzzy logic?

sort of like the mfc team

Now I see where our players are going wrong, they're trying to read the structure sheets on the Ipads.

Saw the pic in the Age today of Beamer handballing. But what made me smile was that the two players pressuring him were Viney and Gysberts.

While this year is bleak, I am looking forward to those two and Strauss featuring next year.

I'm getting dizzy! I guess we want contextual text.

The de-coders tried to send back their interpretive text but unfortunately they used perscriptive text too. I gotta lie down.

thanks heaps for the update guys happy.gifhappy.gifhappy.gif

I always assumed that he had a bunch of attempted image links in his sig or something.

It would need to be consensual, contextual text. I wouldn't like it putting words in my mouth without agreement.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
